Chinese police seize 10 bear paws from smuggler

An illegal shipment of bear paws was intercepted at the airport of Chongqing on January 19. Altogether 10 bear paws were found in two styrofoam cartons.

Bear paws are a gourmet delicacy in traditional Chinese cuisine, often used in soups. Despite that eating paws have been outlawed in China, the demand is still strong among rich Chinese. Bear paw is sold in the underground market at 1,000 yuan per kilo, or roughly US$72.2 per pound.
